Mini Basketball….. securing our future.
The BABA has undertaken the challenge of growing the sport over the long term by introducing its first ever Mini Basketball program.
The training began in December 2009 and continues every Saturday afternoon at The YMCA from 3:30pm. The young players have access to the national head coaches of both the Men’s Senior and Junior Teams, as well as other volunteer coaches who bring a level of enthusiasm and expertise to the program that is unparalleled anywhere else on the island.
“This type of activity is the only way basketball will improve its performance and impact” says the president of The BABA Carlos Moore. “The idea is to generate interest and participation by coaches, players, parents or anyone else involved in youth or basketball by introducing MiniBasketball first at the “Y” then moving it to various community courts to spread the word and the experience.”
The association plans to expand its activities over the coming year focusing on further development of youth initiatives.
